On the main street in Grafenau, southeast of the pilgrimage church, stands this remarkable memorial commemorating the victims of the following wars in this region: 1870/71: 8 war victims WWI: 105 war victims WWI: 269 war victims It is important that these terrible wartime events are remembered here at the church so that they are not forgotten and, hopefully, never repeated. https://warvictims.de/Denkmale/Grafenau
